Astral Stalker

Haunted by the traumatic events of her childhood, Raina spends most of her days astral projecting into a perfect world of rolling hills and beautiful forests. All blocked off by a wall of mountains to keep her safe and secure. She takes on a form that makes her feel strong, a dragon, and it is her realm to rule.

One day this is all ripped away from her when Raina discovers that her only friend, a ghost named Nick, isn't who he says he is. In a panic, with emotions high, Raina gets lost within the astral plane; unable to return to her body.

Now she must travel through her worst nightmares if she is ever to return home. Except... she isn't alone.
